What are we to make of this?




Do they not realize that they're making Jesus out to be a liar?

"He that loveth Me not, keepeth not My sayings. And the Word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me."

]Marke: It's too bad Darwin failed to gain a good understanding of theology in college. Darwin never observed animals evolving into humans or even evolving ito other animals with totally different genomes than their parents, like fish evolving into birds or some other such nonsense.

Theology? What do you know about theology?

Marke: I believe I know more about God than Darwin who benefitted very little from his degree in theology.

But theology is much more complex than just that.
More theology than Darwin?.....where did you gain your knowledge of theology?

I think we can assume that a fish that always breathed air evolved into other fish like it that also breathe air.

Then we should be able to assume that Archaeopteryx would evolve into other lizard-birds. So why aren't there species of lizard-birds around now?

Marke: We may not have any more Archaeoraptors around any more but we do still have apes so evlution has not changed everything as some may fear who do believe in evolution.

Humans, chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans etc. are all modern species which show signs of having descended from a common ancestor. Evolution doesn't have to change everything (the cockroach is still going strong after 70 million years); it depends a lot on adaptability to the environment.

The questions was:
"So why aren't there species of lizard-birds around now?"

To your second part, since evolution is a fact, acknowledging it is not something to fear. I believe you might be projecting your own fear on to others here. Fear is internal, so no amount of trying will place your fear in others though.
What I mean is that since you fear evolution, because it would mean your religious beliefs are false, you fear it. This baggage is your own though and is what brings you fear. Accepting the fact that populations change over time is not something to fear (thus why I feel you are simply projecting your fear on to others).
